Safety & Positioning for all
Carrier Positions
To ensure the safety of a baby in a sling or carrier, always check that the baby’s:
Airways are protected and unobstructed Head is supported Spine is supported
Important Information:
Please read this instruction manual carefully before you use your Izmi® Wrap. More information, advice
and videos can be found on our website www.izmibaby.co.uk/support
Airways:
No fabric covering face
Face and nose visible at all times
Chin is not pressing into their chest
Spine:
Support the spine to prevent your baby from slumping and to give you a snug comfortable fit
Baby’s spine should be supported by the carrier according to their developmental stage:
From newborn: Fully supported to the very top of their neck.
By around 4-5 months (baby can stabilise head while awake): Supported to the top of their back,
level with their shoulders.
By around 7-9 months (baby can sit unaided): Supported up to their armpits (higher if preferred).
Safety and Positioning:
Good positioning of your baby in your Izmi® Wrap will make it safer and more comfortable to use.
Ensure that your Wrap is tied tightly so that it holds your baby’s weight snugly against your body. If
your baby can slump or lean away from your body then they will not be safely supported, and carrying
will quickly become tiring and uncomfortable. Be aware that all babies are different, and react
differently when carried in different positions. WARNING: Ensure your child’s chin is not resting on
its chest as its breathing may be restricted which could lead to suffocation.
Carrying Height:
For your baby’s safety, carry your baby so that you can easily kiss their head. A good guide is to
position your baby at the height that you naturally hold them in your arms. This will help ensure that
your baby’s weight is supported with minimum strain and maximum support.
Head:
Head supported in line with spine
Head remains stable as you move around
Give additional head support as needed for sleeping

Supporting Your Baby’s Head:
Your baby’s head should be stabilised against the movements of your body. For babies unable to do this by
themselves (those younger than 3-5 months), there are 2 ways to give head support in your Izmi® Wrap:
Ensure there is never any fabric covering your baby’s face, or obstructing their airways. You should
always be able to see your baby’s face simply by looking down, without needing to move any fabric
out of the way.
Spread fabric from
one shoulder to
support the back of
your baby’s head.
Roll up a small towel or
muslin cloth and tuck it into
the wrap to support behind
your baby’s neck and head.
